Last week and this week would have been losses in the past. The Huskers are now finding ways to win in close games. Definitely steps in the right direction!

I said it last week. They are learning how to win right before our eyes and us fans should embrace it. When we went up 10 -0 and they scored twice to go up I was actually excited to see how we would react. I knew they wouldn't fold. I loved the next 14 points went to us.

Then after the Dylan pick 6 I was thinking similarly. Let's see how they react to THIS. It's hard to do during the moment but stuff like that is a peak into what happens as teams grow.

I'm a Virginia basketball fan and I remember when we got Tony Bennett as a HC. I just remember watching us and seeing the steps. Seeing a team who would get close but lose. To a team who would play well against good teams but not have quite enough talent to get over the top. To a team who wouldnt quit and in order to beat tjem you had to beat them for the entire game. They wouldn't lay down and make it easy for u. This team ImO is on that step. They don't have top 4 in conference talent yet. They have deficiencies. BUT what's not gonna happen is them laying down. You gonna have go BEAT EM. I love that quality. Toughness and belief in each other goes a long way. They don't ever think they are out of a game...I'll take that. That dog will hunt!

We should. This team has much better chemistry and mojo. They are not sitting around waiting for the next shoe to fall. When they get behind, they do not fold. it isn't often pretty but they somehow, someway manage to get things done. Hopefully they can sink the row boat this week and shut Mr. Banana head up. That dude is beyond irritating.

We’re still close. Just a Spanish pubic hair over the line.
